They said they used to run an in house snack and drink store and did very well. Anyone have experience with these?

Southeast Treats Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I have one that does pretty well, several that are OK. Placement is key, if they want to hide the machines where residents can't easily use them it will hurt your overall sales... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitalCityVendingLLC Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I have a couple. Some are awesome. Some are terrible. Every account is different for so many reasons. May just have to swing and see if you strike out or hit a home run. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgolembiewski0903 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I have one that wants a machine and they are literally in a residential house in a neighborhood... They claim to have 10 residents... Absolutely not worth it, right?Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvus Corax Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I think any thing under 30 people (staff+residents) is probably a bust. For that size they could just stock a fridge and have an honor system.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a nursing home and an assisted living facility and both do well thought they are larger than 40 employees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Group home in a house with 5-10 people living there. It was around the time I first got into vending(when I would've probably jumped on to any opportunity), but I didn't pursue it. I decided I could find a much better home for a machine if I kept looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Residential homes don't work because you can't get enough people in them. Now I have seen halfway houses do well because they generally cram people into every room in those houses, but this would be soda only because a snack machine wouldn't survive long.

Randymire Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I don't set anything less then 50 people unless there's high traffic and I personally see that . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
